SRE at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
Centralized access has strengthened security and simplified day-to-day infrastructure operations
Teleport has been a solid and secure access management solution, but there are a few areas that could be improved, particularly around the initial setup and RBAC configuration. Beyond onboarding and RBAC complexity, there are areas that could be enhanced from an integration perspective. While SSO integration works well, deeper out-of-the-box integrations with SIEM and monitoring tools would be beneficial.
